The investigation continues into what sparked the fatal house fire in northeast Baltimore that also left two other children and their mother are in critical condition. A ninth child has been released from the hospital.

In a statement, the woman's husband and the children's father, said Friday, "My family and I are deeply grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received in the wake of the tragic fire my wife and children experienced. We continue to receive kind offers from many who wish to help. We ask that monetary donations be sent to the GoFundMe account we have set up at https://www.gofundme.com/malone-housefire. We will have information regarding non-monetary donations at a later date. As you can imagine, this is an extremely difficult time for my family, and I ask that our privacy be respected at this time."

After seeing the loss and tragedy unfold, Michael Roslin, owner of Diablo Doughnuts in Fells Point, asked himself, "What can I do?"

"It's just, it's Baltimore," Roslin said. "A child's life is the most precious thing, really, and it's like stuff like that's horrible. There's nothing you can do about it. It's just a horrible thing."

In the only way he knew how to help, he baked special heart-shaped doughnuts with a berry glaze. All proceeds will go to the surviving family members of the fire.

Customers like Mark Chalkley were glad a few were left for them to buy.

"It's a very sad story. I come from a family of six children, that was the maximum in my family. So to think that they lost six children in one fire, your heart goes out to them," Chalkley said.

In the family's neighborhood along Belair Road, it's the little things. Dan Gugara, the owner of the Hub Sports Bar and Grill, a block away from the tragedy, is collecting all sorts of items from the public, anything that can help.

"A lot of customers come in here, we talk to them and that happened, and we're going to do something special like collect everything, clothes, food, anything," Gugara said.

A cause of the fire remains under investigation, officials said Friday.
